Suspected sockpuppets

There is solid off-wiki evidence of undisclosed paid editing. See WP:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard/Archive 86#OCEAN Style and Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard#Risklens (diff) for what can be mentioned openly. Further details probabl falls under WP:OUTING protection but a single Elance account is connected to both of these editing jobs.

Have just connected the Elance account's first job (6ixspace Design Studio) from 2011 to Bamanh27, which leads to CastleKing1440. Maybe the SPI should be renamed/merged. Brianhe (talk) 00:48, 26 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Suggest checking against FlowerStorm48 sockfarm. Connection between SueEllenEwingFan [1] and WoodshopDay [2], similar low-bar sources and identical one word edit summaries at the article Hamilton Jewelers . This may link FlowerStorm48 and CastleKing1440 sockfarms.

Suggest checking SunnyGershwin if it's possible. Roger Connors was created by this SPA [3], then later visited by a FlowerStorm48 sock [4].

Added Creoleo, a SPA who is doing article maintenance on an item which is a fictionalized account of a biog that was subject of an Elancer possibly connected to the FlowerStorm48 team as explained here.

  • [5] - UPE at real-world biog
  • [6] - Creoleo at fictionalized biog
